Ave Maria by Angel Viro — Lyrics
About Ave Maria
Angel Viro's Ave Maria is a sacred motet for SATB choir, sung in Latin. The text is drawn from the traditional Ave Maria prayer, opening with the angel Gabriel's greeting to Mary: "Full of grace, the Lord is with you; blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb." This well-known devotional text has inspired countless musical settings throughout history, and Viro's composition offers a fresh interpretation for contemporary choirs. The piece is likely to evoke a sense of reverence and contemplation, appropriate for liturgical settings or concert programming.
